g-Room, where they found Aurelian upon his Knees,
begging his Father to forgive him, that he could not agree to the Choice
he had made for him, since he had already disposed of himself, and that
before he understood the designs he had for him, which was the reason
that he had hitherto concealed himself. Don Fabio knew not how to answer
him, but look'd upon the Marquess, and the Marquess upon him, as if the
Cement had been cool'd which was to have united their Families.
